jeb bush in florida before him. certainly a lot of republican establishment in washington over time. karl rove, ken mellman. others. understood the demographic changes and the republicans need hispanics to be part of the coalition and historic levels of democratic advantage with african-americans without president obama on the ticket perhaps republicans would have a chance to make a little dent there in the future election, as well. you know, those are different groups but in some ways share some of the same issues. some of them anyway. in terms of the economy. one of the thing that is came out of the commit polling last night was many more people felt like president obama understood people coming from their perspective. people felt more that he was doing things for the middle class and as far as romney seen less as a candidate of the middle class. so these are things where the republicans more broadly probably need to message, not just to latinos and african-americans but also to whites in the middle class and lowe

the candidates have been crisscrossing the swing states for the last 24 hours -- wisconsin, florida, virginia, ohio, all the places that matter. let's take a look first at the national polls. our last poll shows 48% for obama, 47% for mitt romney. the president inching ahead. the same thing has happened in some other national polls. more importantly for the president, look at the swing state numbers. start with the state of virginia, 13 electoral votes. the president's got a one-point lead, 48-47. in florida, with 29 electoral votes, a state mitt romney absolutely has to have, president obama leads by two points-47. and in ohio, the ultimate hinge point in this election, another state that mitt romney absolutely believes that he needs to have to get to 270 electoral votes. he is down 6, 51-45. now, of course, all of these things depend on how you define likely voters. the romney campaign says the polls are not capturing republican enthusiasm. the proof is going to come tomorrow night. >> in your view, john, what are the odds that we will have a decisive winner come wednesday morning?
